Hi Yes I would be interested in sharing info. I am not related to the family but as I live close to the farm if I can help in any way with your research I would gladly help.  Local churches, graveyards or any way i can help

Hi

Not sure if this information is of any use to you.

It sounds like William Dunckley lived in The Old Lodge , River Hill and owned a Mill which  was on Chad Lane and tenanted by John Lea in 1842.
William Dunckley in 1838 owned some cottages in River Hill, Flamstead called Rose Cottages, with tentants William Grigg, William Farr and John Flitton (which is still a local name). These cottages were next to The Old Lodge. He also owned the old priory further down the hill.

Is James the butcher  also family ? And how about Septimus Dunckley?  There is a story about him in 1885.    Also Russell.       

Let me know if you know the stories, if not let me know and I will sent you a personal message .   
If you require any photos let me know, I could always take some.    (mind you might be local).
